Data Futures Lab

The Data Futures Lab is an experimental space for instigating new approaches to data stewardship challenges. It provides funding, scaffolding for collaboration, convening around emerging ideas, and a place to workshop approaches to data stewardship which give greater control and agency to people.

In 2024, Mozilla’s Data Futures Lab is hosting a speaker series exploring a more equitable data ecosystem in the era of generative AI. We’ll feature builders, legal experts, and researchers who identify issues and propose concrete solutions.

Dr. Chijioke Okorie, Founder and Leader of the Data Science Law Lab at the University of Pretoria presented their work to create a new data license given the known drawbacks of using creative commons licenses in certain contexts (reinforcing extractive practices and digital colonialism, for example).
